The Chicago Tribune reported on the ceremonial passing of the torch of Fellowship MB Church’s choral legacy from Rev. Dr. Clay Evans to current pastor, Rev. Charles Jenkins.
It occured during a live recording session Sunday, May 30, which was Jenkins’ first as pastor. Previously all Fellowship recordings were made under Evans’ leadership.
One quick correction: the article states that the Fellowship choir made its first recording in 1965. Its first album was actually recorded in 1962.
